I connected Cloudflare with a link shortening service like Bitly. The links seem to work only with www (www.example.com ), but I’d like to use the naked domain (example.com/name ). If I try to open the link without www, I get the 404 page.
I added an A record pointing to the link shortening server, and a CNAME record for www: Screenshot by Lightshot
I also created a forwarding rule: Screenshot by Lightshot
Can anybody help me fix this? Thank you!
They both ultimately redirect to the link shortener login page.
I noticed. Why is that?
Their support wasn’t very helpful, they said they only use www and what I’m asking needs to be done in CF.
Try setting the www
CNAME to DNS Only (click on the to change).
Thanks for the suggestion. I did this, but no luck so far.
Is ‘www’ a CNAME? It behaves like an “A” record to a Linode server.
Yeah, it should be set as a CNAME (Screenshot by Lightshot )
